A tension test was performed on a steel specimen having an original diameter of 0.503 in. and gage length of 2.00 in. The data is listed in the table. Plot the stress–strain diagram and determine approximately the modulus of elasticity, the yield stress, the ultimate stress, and the fracture stress. Use a scale of 1 in. = 20 ksi and 1 in. = 0.05 in./in. Redraw the elastic region, using the same stress scale but a strain scale of 1 in. = 0.001 in./in.

Question
The pole is supported by a pin at C and an A-36 steel guy wire AB. If the wire has a diameter of 0.2 in., determine how much it stretches when a horizontal force of 2.5 kip acts on the pole.
Solution
The first step in solving 3 problem number 23 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: The pole is supported by a pin at C and an A-36 steel guy wire AB. If the wire has a diameter of 0.2 in., determine how much it stretches when a horizontal force of 2.5 kip acts on the pole.
From the textbook chapter Mechanical Properties of Materials you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
